Method

01
Cut each papaya in 3 sections lengthwise, peel and seed. Slice each section lengthwise into 1cm strips, leaving one end attached so that fruit slices can be fanned out from one end. Fan out fruit decoratively on 6 serving plates.
02
In a bowl, gently toss together strawberries and sugar. Sprinkle black pepper over the berries. Add Pernod and Grand Marnier and again toss gently. Fold in cream. Divide the berries and sauce evenly over each plate of fanned papaya, and serve.
